By combining the latest clinical knowledge with cutting-edge technology, UpToDate changes the way clinicians practice medicine and has become an indispensable part of clinical workflows in institutions and practices worldwide.

Research shows that use of UpToDate leads to changes in clinical decisions and patient management:

A study at Singapore National University Hospital showed that the use of UpToDate led to a change in investigations, diagnosis or management 37% of the time1

Another study found attending physicians using UpToDate changed treatment decisions for 18% of patients2

In 2011, researchers at Harvard University published a study confirming that the use of UpToDate over a three year period was associated with:

Improved quality of every condition on the Hospital Quality Alliance Metrics
